Hours is the second album by the post-hardcore band Funeral for a Friend. The album was released on June 14, 2005 (see 2005 in music) through Atlantic and Ferret Records. The album was produced, recorded and mixed by Terry Date, with co-production by the band. Hours is notable for finding Funeral for a Friend showcase its more melodic side, as there is noticeably less screaming on the album as a whole. This album produced four singles, which were "Streetcar", "Monsters", "History" and "Roses For The Dead".
